It's been a busy and fun month! I started back at HP again, and am really enjoying my new position. Aside from that, the first weekend, I went with my mountain biking girlfriends to ride at Grey Eagle. Friend Julie mapped out several fireroad routes. The riding is either up or down, but the views are AMAZING, and worth the climbing. We got very muddy due to a change in the weather, and loved every minute.
The following weekend, we went with friends - the Lotts - to the Bishops Pumpkin patch in Wheatland, CA. We had never been and I was shocked to see it's like Pumpkin Amusement park. This is a must-see for anyone remotely close to here. There is a petting zoo, train ride, hayride, pig races, lots of good food, HUGE slides on a man built hill, tractor tire climbing area, and lots of pumpkins.
After one weekend of soccor games, a long overdue visit to church and just hanging out at the in-laws, we spent the last weekend enjoying dressing up to go to a Harvest Festival (alternative to Halloween at the local Calvary Chapel where they have games for the kids), and then celebrated my mom's birthday by eating Mashado's pie and lots of lasagna!
And, of course, I fit in a mountain bike ride each weekend. Hubby and I even managed to ride together one weekend since the kiddo's had a sleepover at the in-laws. A couple weekends I have been solo, mostly because I haven't been good at the planning thing since I am VERY busy now with my new job and the kids. A little solo serenity is nice every once in a while.
